Unfortunately, none of the commands ls (hdX,gptX) nor any of ls (hdX,X) nor any of ls (hdX,X)/boot worked for me. In all cases, the output is unknown filesystem.
Also, I am a bit worried that my Manjaro partition has become corrupted, because even GParted is unable to determine the file system. I should expect ext4, right?
$ sudo parted -l
Model: ATA CT1000MX500SSD1 (scsi)
Disk /dev/sda: 1000GB
Sector size (logical/physical): 512B/512B
Partition Table: gpt
Disk Flags:
Number Start End Size File system Name Flags
1 1049kB 556MB 555MB ntfs Basic data partition hidden, diag
2 556MB 660MB 104MB fat32 EFI system partition boot, esp
3 660MB 676MB 16.8MB Microsoft reserved partition msftres
4 676MB 755GB 754GB ntfs Basic data partition msftdata
5 755GB 756GB 627MB ntfs hidden, diag
6 756GB 1000GB 245GB
For the sake of clarity: partition 6 should be my Manjaro partition.
Can this still be repaired? If so, how? If not, which partitions can I reallocate/reuse/reformat if I want to do a fresh install of Manjaro?
Unfortunately, gnome-disk-utility doens’t seem to be available on the flash drive I used to install this version of Manjaro (about 12-18 months ago), and I don’t seem to be able to install it there. Do you know whether Gnome disk utility is included in the newest version of Manjaro? Do you recommend that I refresh my USB flash drive for Manjaro?
$ sudo pacman -Sy gnome-disk-utility

I found the output of the disk analysis kind of suspicious. Some partitions were labeled as ‘P’ (primary) and others as ‘D’ (deleted), including what looked like the Windows partition.
